MG TD TF 1500 - Dash instrument restoration

Who do you recommend for dash instrument repair? I have seen APT, West Valley, and also heard about MOMA in Albuquerque, N.M. but can't find a website for them.

Thought this would be a good question to ask for a first timer going this route to hear about any previous customer references and comments there are out there.

I'm sure it varies from company to company but how much we talking for your typical mgtf dash instruments and how long was the wait?

Best,

Frank

I do not have any affiliation with them but Speedograph Richfield in England are fantastic and you cant beat their prices. Even with the VAT. They have done mine and many others and prices are great. i had tehm do mine and they turned out perfect. both speedo and tach for around 500 bucks. and mine were not working and needed extensive repair. http://www.speedograph-richfield.com/ send em and e mail and they will give you a quote and are very resaonable.

Example on pricing, Moss wants $47.95 for a TF spedo cable, their price is $10.00 less with shipping included. Great place to spend your money! PJ

Tom, Just a point - Anybody outside the VAT zone (obviously includes Canada & US) will not be charged VAT as long as the item is shipped to that point. When buying goods ask for the invoice to not include the VAT - there is nothing to claim back, they simply don't charge it. At 20% it makes a big difference on price. ... Chris

Unfortunately, I have had to remove MOMA from my list of recommended vendors. Trying APT for my current needs. Dan

I don't know if they can service TF instruments, but Nisonger did a nice job on my TD speedo, some years back. nisonger dot com

You might check with Craig Seabrook and see who he is using since Vintage closed shop.

I've no affiliation with Speedograph Richfield either, but I did buy a new rev counter cable last year from them and it was fine. It was delivered quickly and fitted perfectly.

Dan, what's the story on MoMa? Has Margaret closed up shop? Bud

I just went to the Speedograph Richfield site as I need a tach drive cable. I found it on the list as Rev counter cable, but when I clicked on it, the shipping paper says speedometer cable.

I have written to them to make sure it is correct. Price is $19.08 with shipping.
